Nottingham Evening Post on UK Newspaper archives mentions farm at Sissinghurst as location of crash of one of the aircraft

"R.A.F. PLANES COLLIDE.
PILOTS' JUMP TO SAFETY.
LABOURER'S ESCAPE FROM FALLING WRECKAGE.

Two R.A.F. pilots jumped with their parachutes when their machines collided the air near Cranbrook, Kent, today. They escaped uninjured.
The pilots were: Pilot Officer G. Harris and Pilot Sergeant W. G. Hooper, both No. 32 (Fighter) Squadron, Biggin Hill aerodrome.
It is understood that the planes were on manoeuvres. The pilots landed near Cranbrook, mile and a half from the scene of the collision. A woman farmer
at Sissinghurt said to Post representative: A labourer working in a field had a narrow escape from being struck by parts of the fuselage of one of the planes.
I heard the crash, and going outside, saw the parachutes in the air. The pilots had apparently jumped out immediately the collision occurred. The second machine crashed a field at Staplehurst, which adjoins Sissinghurst. The machines were single seater fighters."


The Times of Feb 24, 1937 says one of the machines fell in a field about a mile from Cranbrook and the
other crashed in a field at Polhurst Farm, Staplehurst
